The first Polaris model to utilize a manual transmission, the Xpedition 425 4x4 is idea for heavy work, trail riding, and hunting. Power is supplied by the Polaris 425 4-valve, 4-stroke, liquid-cooled engine, which results in more-even fuel distribution and a high-efficiency fuel burn.

 The Polaris 5-speed manual transmission offers manual gear selection with an automatic clutch.

 A unique stepped floorboard design positions the toe of a rider’s boot under the shift lever, yet keeps his heel slightly higher for comfort and balance.

 Polaris-exclusive E-Z Shift Reverse lets a rider shift into reverse quickly and easily. 

When conditions call for additional traction, a rider uses a handlebar switch to activate the intelligent On-Demand 4-wheel drive system. The Polaris 4-wheel drive system senses when the rear wheels start to lose traction, and instantly and automatically engages both front wheels with full torque using shaft drive. 

The long-travel, progressive rate swing arm rear suspension has a 2-inch, gas-charged Bilstein® shock with traction line mount. The suspension provides 6.5 inches of travel for a smooth ride and better handling. 

The Xpedition 425 4x4 has tight-turning, long-travel (6.7 inches) MacPherson strut front suspension and a turning radius of 65 inches. Reliable, consistent braking is provided by the single-lever, all-wheel hydraulic disc brakes and auxiliary hydraulic foot brake. 

An electronic speedometer with a digital hour meter and odometer/tripmeter offers readouts in both miles and kilometers.

 The Xpedition 425’s full floorboards and front and rear cargo racks are made of a durable composite material.

 It also has two grille-mounted headlights, a brake light, electric start, tow hitch, adjustable handlebars, a tool kit, and a 4-gallon fuel tank.
